Flamengo's qualification for the Copinha semi-final was filled with emotion. Mais Querido went to penalties with Aster - SP, after only being tied 1-1 in normal time. Rubro Negro won on penalties by a score of 4 to 3. The hero of the match was goalkeeper Lucas Furtado, who took two hits. After the classification, the archer spoke about his feeling with the victory and said that the goal is to beat champion.
"I want to thank God for the moment I'm living, this is the result of a lot of work. We arrived here with the intention of beating in the final and we will become champion. The feeling of qualifying, being a protagonist, helping in the match and in the penalties, for me is sensational. My heart is beating with joy, 220 (beats), at least", said Lucas Furtado, for 'CazéTV'.
"Today I chose to leave early on some sides, but I also waited for the two kicks I took, I induced their athletes to hit the corner that was most confident of falling. We're going to hit in the final, we will fill the stadium and become champion. It's the first step towards realizing a bigger dream, it's obvious that it's good to win, to be decisive, but I'm not even close to realizing my dream, which is to play professionally, with Maracanã full. Doing there what I did here today (Friday, 19th)", added Lucas Furtado.
GOALKEEPERS REFERENCE OF LUCAS FURTADO
The archer also told what his references are in the career. Garoto do Ninho was born on March 9, 2005. He mentioned that one of his references is the legendary Czech Petr Cech, who made history at Chelsea (ING). Lucas Furtado also praised two Flamengo goalkeepers: Matheus Cunha and Augustín Rossi.

This way, after Lucas Furtado shined and helped in the Mais Querido classification, Flamengo will face Cruzeiro in the semifinals of the São Paulo Junior Football Cup. On the other side of the bracket, Corinthians and Novorizontino compete for the other place in the decision.

A potential scandal involving the Copa Libertadores quarterfinal match between Flamengo and Estudiantes (ARG) in La Plata has gained prominence in the Argentine press. The NGO "Sport Without Drugs," represented by Aldo Sérgio Parodi, filed a formal complaint of "collective doping" regarding the match, alleging that no post-match drug tests were conducted.
Aldo Parodi: "There was no relevant control in the international match between Estudiantes and Flamengo"
Aldo Parodi filed the complaint with federal prosecutor Ana María Russo of La Plata, based on Law No. 26,912, which regulates anti-doping control in Argentine sports. According to the document, the lack of post-match testing constitutes a violation of current legislation and "collective doping," since testing should be mandatory in international competitions.
The whistleblower also attributes responsibility to CONMEBOL president Alejandro Domínguez, as well as the president of the Argentine Football Federation, Claudio "Chiqui" Tapia, and the Minister of Tourism, Environment, and Sports, Daniel Scioli . For now, the prosecutor's office has not yet determined the next steps in the case.
" Argentina lacks laboratories recognized by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), and therefore, there was no relevant control during the international match between Estudiantes and Flamengo . This constitutes a serious breach of the law," reports the text submitted by Aldo Parodi.
On the field, Estudiantes defeated Flamengo 1-0 in La Plata, a score that leveled the match after the red-and-black's 2-1 victory at Maracanã. With the aggregate score tied, the decision went to penalties, and goalkeeper Agustín Rossi shone, saving two shots , securing the Mais Querido a place in the Copa Libertadores semifinals.
Flamengo will return to Argentina on October 29th, when they face Racing (ARG) in the second leg of the Copa Libertadores semifinal. Before that, Filipe Luís's team will try to take a lead at the Maracanã stadium on October 22nd in the first leg of the decisive clash.

Flamengo's recent decision to go to court to block a R$77 million transfer from Libra is not only affecting the league's clubs, but is also causing turmoil behind the scenes at Gávea. What began as a disagreement over TV revenue sharing criteria has evolved into an internal political dispute, pitting the current administration against groups linked to former president Rodolfo Landim . This information comes from journalists Alexandre Araújo and Rodrigo Mattos of UOL.
The red-black board states that the current Libra division model will cause a loss of around R$100 million in 2025, compared to the revenue of 2024. Under the command of Luiz Eduardo Baptista (Bap), the management classifies the league's conduct as "illegal" , arguing that the judicial route has become the only alternative after ten months of impasse.
On the other hand, Palmeiras, Atlético-MG, Grêmio, and other Libra member clubs were surprised by Flamengo 's action. Internally, the measure is seen as an attempt to pressure the league to change its audience-based distribution criteria. In a statement, Libra declared that the issue was "exhaustively debated" and that it will "defend the legitimacy of collective decisions in court."
While the external dispute unfolds in the courts, the internal repercussions will be felt at the Deliberative Council meeting, scheduled for Tuesday (7) . Officially, the meeting aims to “clarify doubts and align the next steps”, but in practice it should expose the political fissures within the club.
Although a significant portion of the board supports the lawsuit as a way to protect Flamengo 's interests, the handling of the process has generated unease . Members of groups allied with Landim, some still in the administration, criticize the way the situation was handled, without extensive dialogue.
